SATYASASANA-PARIKSA
pitable to guests, performing oblation and truthful.1 The candidate for salvation should not perform the kämya and nişidaha duties. He should however do the other two types of duties in order to get rid of the obstacles that might obstruct his spiritual progress. The Prābhākara Mimāmsakas include these two also under the kámya duties and do not prescribe them for the aspirant to salvation.
Vidyānanda selects the Mimāmsaka concept of universal for refutation at great length. But as we have already elaborated the Jaina concept of universal, we do not propose to discuss them in the present context.
